Now, the fact that Momoiro Clover is signed to a successful label isn’t going to change everything. Every label has their own hits and misses. Avex, for example, is a very successful music label, but their most recent attempt at the idol world, Tokyo Girls’ Style, has terrible sales and their sales keep dropping. (Note: I am not dissing TGS in any way shape or form; their sales have just been sucky). <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
However, Momoiro Clover has a very firm backing in the idol business. They’ve been around for over two years now (they recently did a two year anniversary live) and have released two indies singles and one major single that are pretty successful. In fact, Ikuze! Kaitou Shoujo, their major debut single, got #3 on the Oricon weekly charts, something that even AKB didn’t do with their early major label singles. This may be comparing different things because now the Japanese music industry is LOVING female idol groups (which, as a fan, makes me VERY happy), but the fact that they’re doing better than Avex’s attempt to capitalize on the current idol boom in Japan shows that there’s something about MomoClo that appeals to a wide variety of people (including me <3)<\/span><\/div>\n

While most people might go “ooh, new label, pretty pictures”, I think this is rather significant. It means that MomoClo is growing in popularity and significance, and I think they actually might have a shot at becoming a much more prominent idol group.<\/span><\/div>\n
